OK, results look much more coherent, thanks. Judo ;)
Its still a bit incoherent when the the counters are undefined, but
thats "just" strange.

This will only work when drawing an "void" graph, yes? There's no
obvious way to determine the per-pixel step when a real graph is being
generated. At least, the numbers I'm getting don't add up... Oh well ;)

humm... would still be "nice" if RRD provided the current effective step
during the calculation phase.

Thanks for the help Alex,
